Beach Field Trip

The Kindergarten students at Olivia's school recently went on an end-of-the-year field trip to the beach on St. Simon's Island.  What I want to know is where was this field trip when I was in school?  I would have loved to do some "learning" on the beach.  Olivia had a great time playing in the ocean with her friends.  I think they were on the beach for a little over two hours. Thanks to a last minute change in his work schedule, Brian was able to go with the class on the field trip.  As you can imagine, he was real sad about having to go to the beach on such a beautiful day.  I'm sure he would have much rather have been at work (ha).
